Mohamed Samir, the director of DayDream said that being awarded by an international film festival of such reputation is regarded as a strong push forward that supports the plans of the company which aims at producing creative work different from current mainstream cinema.
Zafir is a short feature film, 20 minutes long, addressing the state of an old couple of in their seventies, who live a life of silence filled with daily routine. The director tries - without a single word uttered by the main characters - to stress that silence may express more about inner feelings than verbally uttered words. He also referred to boredom as the natural outcome of maintaining the a daily routine.
Mazen and Jalila, the stars of the film, were selected by Omar El Zohairy among the residents of an elderly caring house. It was their first time on camera, enabling the filmmakers to make it seem as close-to-reality as possible.
